I was in Home Depot on Saturday and they already have Christmas decorations there. Our cashier at Shop Rite said that they have them at K Mart too. This is just so ridiculous. It's getting earlier every year. I love this holiday but whatever happened to waiting until at least closer to Thanksgiving to put Christmas stuff in stores?
I was thinking about Christmas 1980 when I saw all that. The top 4 pictures are of my family and 2 friends Suzy and Jenny. We were singing Christmas songs for our families. I'm wearing one of my fav dresses. Grandma next door , Uncle Mike, Mom and my brother are in these photos.
The bottom 4 photos are at my Aunt Al and Uncle Gene's house in Bordentown. We had our second Christmas there during that week before New Year's Day. My cousin Mary, Mark and I were singing songs for our family. I'm wearing my favourite sweater that mom knit for me. I love Janet's overalls. Gene David, Ellen and her boyfriend Bruce are also there.

I really love looking at these pictures! :) And I agree...Christmas decorations are out WAY too early!!!
Thank you - I'm happy that you like my photos. They also start playing the holiday music too soon on the radio.
Hi LaraAnn,
I love the pics from your childhood. They really capture the times. Christmas photos are always so bright and colourful and fun to look at! :)
Thanks so much. Christmas has always been my favourite holiday. Sometimes I wish that my family had even more photos from then.
